Sunday, surgeons count ~, found Sum

train II, and known to have returned
home 3. Total, So. These figures may
be changed by the probable presence of
children without tickets on the train who
have not yet been heard from.
A still later dispatch from the same
source says: The previous computation
of the total number of passengers on the
wrecked train is tonight increased by q,
making 81 known to have been there. This
leaves 6 still unaccounted for, which
may be partially done by the flexibility
of the surgeons estimates of charred
bodies made on Sunday. The total num-
Der of identified dead tonight is seven
teen, the list having been increased one
to-day by the addition of Harry Brooks
of Boston, whose body was tonight sent
to Cornwall, Canada, by his uncle, Allen

Sunday morning. after the surrender,
while going through the works, a man
passed me on a lively trot who carried
paper and pencil, and who halted mo-

face and solemn countenance re-
vealed the identity of Coffin, the Bos-
ton correspondent, who was doing the

could see him he kept the pace, up hill
and down, over breastworlls, parapets,
rifle pits, rocks, fallen trees and all other
obstacles. He ran with his head down,
ike an animal which trails by scent. If
his report was at all commensurate in
value with the speed developed in getting
it up it must have been thrilling beyond
estimate.

The Living Earth.

In a paper published in the Indian
Engineer, an illustration is given of
the life that dwellsin nature, thephe-
nomenon of earthquakes being cited.
The peculiar terror ofan earthquake
lies mainly in the suddennesS of its
approach. Volcanic eruptions are u.s.
ually preceded by vast rumblings, or
jets Of steam, or other unmistakable
tokens. Hurricanes and cyclones, in
like manner, have heralds that an
nounce their coming. But with an
earthquake their I no premonitory
symptoms. The great earthquake
which took place at Lisbon in the
year 1875 found the people engaged
in their ordinary occupations. All
the shocks were over in about five
minutes. The first shock lasted
about six seconds. In that brief
space of time most of the houses had
been thrown down, and thousands Of
men, women, and children crushed
beneath the ruins. AT times the
ocean lends fresh terrors to the scene.
Thus at Lisbon a wave of water ovel
so feet high rushed in among the
houses, and covered what still re-
manned. In the island of Jamaica on {
similar occasion two thousand five
hundred houses were buried in three
minutes under 80 feet Of water. Re
cent delicate scientific experiment.
have disclosed the tact that the sur
face of the land is never absolutely a
rest for more than thirty hours at 6
time. Thus those great earthquake
which make epochs in history ar
merely extreme cases Of forces tina

both in the House Of Commons
and among the people. The inter-
marriages of royal families give rise
to strange relationships in Europe
and it is a matter ofnote that the larg-
est wars are waged between nations
whose monarchs are very near rela-
tives. In fact all the monarchs of
Europe today, except the Sultan of
Turkey, are blood relatives, every
one of them decended on one side or
the other from John of Gaunt, son of
Edward III, of England.
The Queen has told us much of the
happy life she led with the Prince
Consort, especially at Balmoral, their
country seat in the Scottish highlands.
There nearly all the court ceremoni-
al was laid aside, and the happy
couple enjoyed themselves like a
country gentleman and lady of the
middle class. 1t was far otherwise
at the regular British Court, espec-
tally at Windsor Castle, the estab-
lished royal residence.
This noted structure is situated Just
east of the little city of Windsor, a
place of some 10000 inhabitants, on a
high ground above the right bank of
the Thames, twenty-three miles from
London. An iron bridge across the
Thames connects Windsor with
Elton, the seat of learning; both places
are very beautiful, and well supplied
with elegant homes. The royal cas-
tie and attached buildings cover
twelve acres of ground, and stand in
a tract of alternate grove, plat, lake
and garden, called "Little Park, A"
though it is four miles in circumfer-
ence; southwark from this extend the
noted Windsor avenues of old trees,
which connect with the "Great Park"
eighteen miles in circumference, and
west of that again is the great Wind
sor forest, with a circuit of fifty-siX
miles. Almost every rod ofall these
is historic ground; for this was a
residence of the Saxon kings nearly
1000 years ago, and has rarely ceased
to be a royal home at any subsequent
time. In those groves and shaded
walks have been held many confer
enceS and many arguments made
that settled the fate of dynasties, and
from the gates have ridden many
couriers bearing dispatches that have
changed the destiny of nations. The
castle proper was founded by Will
lam the %Conqueror, but almost en-
tirely rebuilt by ordero of Edward I'LL,
the architect being the noted Will
lam of Wykeham, and, in lS24-'S,
the edifce was finally and complete

Godfrey Wyatville. st. Georges
